Sorry to keep replying to myself. Just wanted to let you know my
progress. After stepping back and evaluating the case I managed to
configure it as I wanted.
## View
jQuery(document).ready(function(){jQuery("#%(id)s").jqGrid({
onSelectRow: function(postdata){$("#myframe").attr('src',"/MyApp/
default/details/"+(postdata));}
});
## Controller
def details():
id = request.args[0]
// everything else
return dict()
